SHUT ouT THE NETS.

New YORK, Aug. IA. The ball
ground at RidgewOod, L. l., was com
pletely hemmed in by spectators to-day,
and the crowd of 10000 got their full
moneys worth. The game was essen
TALLY battle of the pitchers. Weld
man, late of the DetrOitS, for whom the
Nets paid 81, 900, was in the box for
Staten Island, and Terry curved for
Brooklyn. Terry struck out more men,
but he also gave more bases on balls.
The Brooklyn men got their bats in
front of Weidman's delivery very often,
but they could not put the ball far
enough away. unless it went up III the
air. They hit hard and safe only
times, but Gerhardt, HankinsOn and
the OHtfield supported the new pitchers
prettily. In the third inning Jones
made rafting running catch from Nc
Clellan's bat. and threw the ball from
center to first like shot in time to pre-
vent Pinkney from getting back to the
base. The Nets are much encouraged
to do better work hereafter. Score:

CINCINNATI, Aug. IA. - Hecker's
home-run hit in the last inning saved

centage hitting after three strikes had
been called. The Reds hit Ramsey at

full manner, Nicoll leading in this
respect. Baldwin's catching and the

Foutz' thumb is not broken, but it is
knocked out so that he will not be able

features of to-day'S game was the bat

ing of Reipschlager and the fielding of
Gleason and Allen. BushOng rejoined
